Celebrating Bolton and the work of Bill Naughton, The Big Corner follows Bill and Alf, two young Bolton lads growing up together hungry for adventure, discovering the mystery and the delights of girls.
It’s at Bolton Octagon April 19 to May 5.
In 1967, the Octagon Theatre Bolton opened its doors for the first time with Bill Naughton’s Annie and Fanny and now, as it prepares to close its doors for refurbishment, Lawrence Till, former artistic director (1992-1999), returns to his Bolton home with this new play, weaving together Naughton’s stories and memoirs of Bolton life.
